Anorectal melanoma: Report of two cases.

Introduction: Anorectal melanoma (AM) is a rare and aggressive type of cancer. Its symptoms often resemble those of common benign anal conditions, such as hemorrhoids, leading to frequent delays in diagnosis. Consequently, about one-third of patients have metastases at the time of their initial diagnosis.

Malignant mesonephric tumor of the uterine cervix is an extremely uncommon subtype of cervical adenocarcinoma with rare, documented cases in the literature. In this report, we present a case of 58 yo, with abdominal pain and ascites that was found to have a synchronous presence of a mesonephric adenocarcinoma of the cervix and advanced serous ovarian carcinoma on the surgical specimen. The histological study identified a tumor showing a mix of tubular and ductal growth patterns.

Perforated ulcer at the gastrojejunal anastomosis: a rare complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy (case report).

Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is recognized as one of the most intricate abdominal surgical procedures, often accompanied by high morbidity rates.

The predominant symptomatology manifests as acute abdominal pain accompanied by peritonitis.

Pre-sternal Embryonic Dermoid Cyst: A Case Report.

Epidermoid and dermoid cysts are benign, usually slow-growing lesions classified as ectodermal inclusion cysts. These cysts form when epithelial remnants become trapped during the closure of the first and second branchial arch; however, a few cases are related to trauma or are iatrogenic. Diagnosis is made based on the cyst development history and imaging such as ultrasound.

Pleomorphic carcinoma (PC) is an uncommon and high-grade form of breast carcinoma characterized by the presence of distinctive pleomorphic giant tumor cells exhibiting bizarre nuclei and atypical mitosis. In this study, we report three patients who presented with lesions composed of a proliferation of large pleomorphic cells with a predominance of multinucleated giant cells on a microscope. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed distinct immunologic profiles within the respective malignant components.

Gastric volvulus (GV) is a rare condition characterized by the rotation of all or part of the stomach around its transversal or longitudinal axis. We report the case of a 76-year-old woman with the acute form of GV, likely exacerbated by hiatal hernia and age-related ligamentous relaxation, evolving for a week before her admission. She underwent a midline laparotomy with fundoplication at 270° and anterior gastropexy.

Pseudoaneurysm of the Gastroduodenal Artery: A Rare Complication of Bile Duct Surgery.

Pseudoaneurysm of the gastroduodenal artery (GDA) is an exceptional complication of common bile duct (CBD) resection. We present the case of a 60-year-old woman with a history of cholecystectomy. The patient was admitted to our hospital for surgical management of the cystic dilatation of the CBD.

Early Small Bowel Obstruction Caused by Surgical Drain Following Rectal Cancer Surgery: A Case Report.

The abdominal drains are commonly used and could be a source of several complications, including infection and small bowel obstruction. We report the case of a 70-year-old male patient with intestinal obstruction related to abdominal drainage after rectal surgery. Acute bowel obstruction remains a rare complication of abdominal drains.

A Report of Two Rare Cases of Buschke-Löwenstein Tumor.

The Buschke-Löwenstein tumor is a rare clinical entity. Its severity is related to the local invasion and the risk of recurrence and malignant transformation. It is caused by a viral infection due to the human papillomavirus.

Gastric schwannoma: The gastrointestinal tumor simulator - case report and review of the literature.

Introduction And Importance: Gastric schwannoma is a rare and benign tumor originating from the peripheral nerves of the stomach. Despite its benign nature, this tumor typically remains asymptomatic for an extended period, and its radiological and endoscopic presentation poses challenges in distinguishing it from other gastric mesenchymal tumors.

Case Presentation: Here, we present a rare case of a patient experiencing gastric pain and melena secondary to a gastric mass.

Extrahepatic bile duct metastasis from rectal adenocarcinoma: case report and literature review.

Introduction And Importance: Extrahepatic metastasis is an exceptional site for rectal adenocarcinoma. Its clinical and radiological presentations are similar to those of cholangiocarcinoma, and its management requires collaboration between surgeons, endoscopists, and oncologists.

Case Presentation: We present a unique case of a 58-year-old woman previously treated two and a half years ago for middle rectal adenocarcinoma with liver metastasis.

Radiation-induced angiosarcoma of the breast: a case report.

Introduction: Breast angiosarcoma is a rare, aggressive tumour affecting adult women. It can occur in two forms, primary form and secondary forms or radiation-induced breast angiosarcoma affecting patients with history of breast or chest radiotherapy.

Case Presentation: The authors report a new case of breast angiosarcoma in 52-year-old women, with history of invasive ductal carcinoma, and reporting a discoloration of her breast skin.

Biliptysis Revealing a Bilio-Bronchial Fistula.

The presence of a bilio-bronchial fistula (BBF) of hydatid origin is considered a serious complication as it can lead to significant injuries at the abdominal, diaphragmatic, and thoracic levels. Here, we report the case of a 70-year-old patient presenting with biliptysis as a symptom and whose thoracic and abdominal CT scan confirmed the presence of a right BBF. The management consisted of an initial endoscopic sphincterotomy, followed by an exclusive left thoracotomy surgery to treat lung, liver, and diaphragmatic injuries.

Ovarian plasmacytoma: a case report.

Plasmacytomas are a rare spectrum of plasma cell neoplasms that are single localized tumours, lacking the clinical features of plasma cell myeloma with no radiographical evidence of additional plasma cell tumours. Two clinical variants of plasmacytomas can be distinguished: solitary plasmacytoma of bone and extramedullary (or extraosseous) plasmacytoma. The latter is rare, representing 1% of all plasma cell neoplasms, occurring most frequently in the upper airways.

An unusual presentation of ovarian carcinoma with supraclavicular lymph node and colorectal metastases leading to spontaneous rectovaginal fistula.

Introduction And Importance: Secondary metastases to the rectum from primary ovarian cancer are a rare entity and their diagnosis and management are challenging.
